Be Bear Wise Alabama

Alabama Wildlife & Freshwater Fisheries

With the late spring and early summer months comes an increased number of bear sightings. This time of year bears begin to travel in search of mates or to find a new home after leaving their mother. More often these bears are just passing through and are not likely to stick around or be seen again. However, some bears may stay in an area longer if they have found an easy food source becoming more of a nuisance.
